hold a census/ and a samba no one cares/ about uganda do you wanna/ marijuana its the cola/ of the nation

the highway is so close now, /the night sounds like a projector/ even the racoons fled / so close to my heart/ it plays tricks on my sight/ industrial slugs over rotting logs/ pour condominiums/like maple syrup/ pleasing corporate hounds/ who…

Cthulahoop recording commenced after a peculiarly strong dream. Uses samples of a friend's digerido run through an analog filter. Definitely dream state.

OK we lost power at a critical point in recording for RPM. This one was written and recorded the day I had to pack up all my recording gear and borrow a room at a local public business which was on a different power grid. The wind had caused some…

Inspiration for this quick fun one came from Uncommon Ritual and other works by Edgar Meyer: I wanted to take a run of notes across multiple instruments just to have fun!

We play even number of games of backgammon and sometimes it ends in a...

But don't answer yet, we will DOUBLE the offer if you call right now...

Written with thoughts for Nodar Kumaritashvili who died at the 2010 Olympics. It was a one in a million chance...

I live near the beautiful ocean. This is a contemplative moment viewing the ocean from a small bluff. Dobro and mando.

I figure if I keep trying long enough, I'll start channeling the great Django Reinhardt. Perhaps it's like squeezing blood from a stone but if I get a drop or two, I'm happy with that!

Named after a painting which was named after a lovely little daily ritual I share with my best friend.

Sometimes a tune pops up right to left field. This is one of em! I backed it up with a stand-up bass track which I was intending to re-record before RPM submission but ran outta time.

This one is named after the resident cat who loved me dearly when I was a visitor. Now that I've moved in I'm pretty much only good for adminstering food and occasional petting- on the cat's terms of course!

The title came to me when I saw what impending maelstrom was headed our way on satellite imagry. Lots of space in this tune...

Lyrics: Les animaux du cheveux faux, Les animaux du cheveux faux, adieu, adieu, mes animaux...

The lyrics continue the theme of the previous track, if you care about that sort of thing.

The final track of my 2010 RPM Challenge album. The intro is a bit of a red herring to lead the listener(whoever that may be...) to believe it is in the same vain(vein?) as the Fear Trilogy but then morphs into something else. This too fall into…

Track from my RPM Challenge album of 2010(I changed it up a little!) This is the final installment of the Fear Trilogy. I had originally intended to have a 4 part trilogy because that's the way to do it but time time time... This, like Home Alone…

A track from my 2010 RPM album. This is the 2nd installment of the Fear Trilogy.

Another track from 2010 RPM Album. This is the first track in the Fear Trilogy. I wish I had the time to edit it down a bit more but I still think it would make great background music for a haunted house display or Halloween party...

Another track from my 2010 RPM Challenge album. It is a song about our little family and what is going on in our house at this point in time. The kids never tire from hearing their names and activies in song.

4th track for the 2010 RPM Challenge. This track should performed cleaner but time was not on my side and a keyboard guy I am not so... It was also supposed to be much longer but I could not find my larger memory card for my recorder and only…

3rd track for 2010 RPM Challenge. This song has been kicking around for well over a decade but was never recorded.

2nd track from 2010 RPM Challenge. I rather like this instrumental, it's more fit and polished than the other instrumentals that I ran out of time to make more, well, fit and polished?

First song from my 2010 RPM Challenge entry Revelations Per Moment.

The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage. One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs. Vodka I want the vodka 'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
